Protein, have you been lead to believe the unbelievable?!
PLEASE READ THE WHOLE TEXT BEFORE YOU ANSWER!.
Thanks!.
There is mass confusion about protein!.
Protein is everywhere in the body!.
Skin, teeth, bone, hair, blood vessels, organs, blood and the one that everyone knows!.!.!.muscle!.
Proteins are made from amino acids!. Protein if you can imagine would be a chain and the amino acids would be the links!.
Cooked animal muscle meat is indeed a very heavy chain, so the human digestive system must break it down to usable amino acid "links" so that it can be used as nutrition!.
This taxes the body tremendously and diseases could follow!.
This I believe some of my fellow yahoo uses don't understand!.
Fruits and vegetables have amino acids that are ready and usable for the body, without stress, and raw fruits and veggies even have their enzymes intact so they digest themselves!.!.!.what a bargain!.
So eat meat if you want, but it's your body that will break from all the work you make it do!.
So, my question is; have meat-eaters and the public been misinformed about protein!?Www@FoodAQ@Com

Answers:
Yes, completely misinformed!. Several times including with that whole mess/myth about "incomplete" protein and the need to combine which just doesn't go away along with the RDA which is padded making us think we need more than we do especially if we are athletic!.

It's actually a huge political issue!. There's really nothing more political than food from bananas that shaped South America (bananas are a huge food crop for huge swaths of people in the world yet that is not meat at all) which involved the United States manufacturing coups to take over resistant governments in Gautamala (while Che was there)

Meat, dairy and eggs are big business in North America especially and have been able to shape everything from the Farm Bill (a huge omnibus bill), that covers other programs also manipulated by the business interests such as the School Lunch Program, Food Stamps, and more!. They also shaped the ubiquitous Food Pyramid and nutritionism!.
There's not a lot of profit, other than in bananas but that's in self-destruct, in fruits and vegetables (yet, till they get the patents on the seeds anyway like they have with corn, soy, wheat, beets, canola, and a few others)!.

Kitchen Literacy: How we lost knowledge of where food comes from and why we need to get it back
Ask children where food comes from, and they’ll probably answer, “the supermarket!.” Ask most adults, and their replies may not be much different!. We know remarkably little about what we eat!. Where our foods are raised and what happens to them between farm and supermarket shelf have become mysteries!. How did we become so disconnected from the sources of our beef, cheeses, cereal, lettuce, and countless other foods that nourish us every day!?
Ann Vileisis’s answer is a sensory-rich journey through the history of making dinner!. From eighteenth-century gardens and historic cookbooks to calculated advertising campaigns and sleek supermarket aisles, Kitchen Literacy chronicles profound changes in how Americans have shopped, cooked, and thought about their foods through two centuries!.

and how it is now:

America's Food
We don't think much about how food gets to our tables, or what had to happen to fill our supermarket's produce section with perfectly round red tomatoes and its meat counter with slabs of beautifully marbled steak!. We don't realize that the meat in one fast-food hamburger may come from many different cattle raised in several different countries!. In fact, most of us have a fairly abstract understanding of what happens on a farm!.
In America's Food, Harvey Blatt gives us the specifics!. He tells us, for example, that a third of the fruits and vegetables grown are discarded for purely aesthetic reasons; that the artificial fertilizers used to enrich our depleted soil contain poisonous heavy metals; that chickens who stand all day on wire in cages choose feed with pain-killing drugs over feed without them; and that the average American eats his or her body weight in food additives each year!.
Blatt also asks us to think about the consequences of eating food so far removed from agriculture; why unhealthy food is cheap; why there is an International Federation of Competitive Eating; what we don't want to know about how animals raised for meat live, die, and are butchered; whether people are even designed to be carnivorous; and why there is hunger when food production has increased so dramatically!. America's Food describes the production of all types of food in the United States and the environmental and health problems associated with each!.

Knowing so little about our foods we are ripe for manipulation and propaganda!. And embracing what makes us feel good about what we have been doing even if it's wrong and obviously faulty!.

You realize that the protein in fruits and vegetables is an incomplete protein right!? That means that your body cannot absorb all the protein it!. also the amount of protein in fruits and vegetables is very very low!.
Meat itself is very healthy as long as your going about it the right way!. Obese people shove fatty meats like bacon hotdogs and bad cuts of meat into there body!. Of coarse that isn't healthy!. But a diet with leans meats like chicken and turkey and lean cuts of other meats is very important to have in your diet!. The protein is a COMPLETE protein unlike that of fruits and vegetables!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

If evolved canine teeth are a sure sign to eat meat, then why do fat people want to lose weight!? Or people with diseases want them cured!? According to that theory, men are meant to wear toupees when they go bald, or else why would they loose their hairs in the first place!? It comes down to a choice you make, the truth is out there, and so is protein!.

It's worked for (presumebly) millions of years =/ Have you considered that all of our high chloresterol/diabetes/whatever diseases you meant to say are from 3 fast food meals a day!?
And, what fruit has protein!? (legit curiousity, not being a smart *** or anything)
@Fran
48 g protein (specially since it's incomplete protein) is not enough lolWww@FoodAQ@Com

I believe you!.
Ive always known meat isnt good for you!.
Adding to that, the animals carry disease when they are killed!. Not all, but alot of them!.
They are fed harmful chemicals so they will reproduce and grow faster than the norm!.
Meat causes diabetes 2
heart disease
colon cancer/issues
obesity
heart attacks
and much more!.

I agree!. We don't need meat for protein!. You can get everything your body needs, including a mass amount of protein, from enjoying the wholesome goodness of carrots!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
yaWww@FoodAQ@Com
we were raised to believe that the only way to get protein was by meat!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
A fruit fast may solve some problems like that, but no one should be living entirely on fruit at all!. I'm bored!.!.this isn't really the section for me!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
I think so!. When people hear vegetarian they think O NO not enough protein!.
But I can tell you how much protein is in almost all the foods i eat!.
Breakfast: coco pebbles 1 gram
vitasoy vanilla 7 grams
Lunch: peanut butter 7 grams
grape jelly 0grams
wheat bread (2 slices) 4 grams
bag of fritos 2 grams
dinner: boca vegan burger 13 grams
wheat bread 4 grams
baked potato ~ 5 grams
smart balance 0 grams
steamed broccoli ~7 grams
not counting any fruit drinks i drink through out the day
Total: 48 grams of protein
WAKE UP WORLD! PROTEIN IS IN VIRTUALLY EVERYTHING!

here is a question, if we were not met to eat meat why would we have evolved with canine teeth, also, why would we have a whole section of our tong dedicated to savory tastes ( found only in meat)!. and why is it that it has been proved countless times that eating meat helps you heal faster or that you need meat!. albeit most people could live with allot less meat in their diet BUT you can't just take meat out of the equation or there will be unseen side effects!. i've eaten meat my whole life and yt i can get over the flew in under three days ( i get it one day, its horrible the next and i recover the next day) i have never had to go to the hospital ( except for the necessary stuff like check-ups and tetanus shots) and i heal from wounds in mere days!. if you want to pose a challenging debate try to get information from less extremely bias sites!.
PS: if we weren't supposed to eat meat, why would god make them so Delicious!?Www@FoodAQ@Com

Nice rant!.
No we haven't C!. Maybe you have!. Most folks acknowledge that ALL food research is funded by the various sections of the food industry whose only goal is to make $$$!. It's natural to want to believe everything that you agree with but it's a whole other thing to try and push that on someone else!.
EDIT: yeah ok!. Everything YOU want to be true is true and everything else is a lie and a conspiracy!. Sorry to bruise your ego, but it doesn't work like that!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
